Total War: Warhammer

Do either of you incorporate mods? @LouderVol
I haven't with 3's immortal empire.

I honestly haven't bought all the DLC, and really don't play enough to run thru all the content that already exists, so I haven't really felt the need to try mods. there probably are some QoL mods/patch mods I should try.

In 1 & 2 I used a good number of mods.

tigermen coming to WTW3 sometime this summer. sounds like they will be monstrous infantry for Cathay.

they have been one of the most talked about subfactions in the lore, starting with the tabletop, for a long time.

I was really hoping they were just going to be part of an Ind (india/SE asia equivalent) Order aligned beastmen faction. or even if they were just some Rogue armies that would pop up for flavor would have been a nice touch. In the little bit of Cathay lore that is out there Tigermen are still pretty rare, but there are even more beastmen out there.

Tigermen have been listed alongside monkeymen (chaotic neutral alignment) as the two most common. Elephantmen (order), wolfmen (order), foxmen (chaotic neutral) and some other beastmen found mostly in Ind. Gators and Mermen have also been even more whispered.

Typically in Warhammer fantasy lore-logic the more predator/top of the food chain an animal is the more order aligned their beastmen versions are. the actual beastmen are pretty much always shown as goats/cows/pigs which is generally explained as being more chaos aligned. even though in lore you do get some bear/wolf/eagle ones. Elephants seem to be the major exception but I think that is due to the crossover logic of Elephants being seen as positive creatures in various cultures around SE asia. Dragon ogres are the exception in the other direction, but they existed before chaos and were previously sentient so they aren't the "typical" beastmen story, of a non-sentient becoming sentient.

fwiw it has been an extreme rumor that the last of the old ones was in Ind, and/or that there are Slann there leading a lizardmen-adjacent culture.

I just want a Nippon faction. The mod's pretty good but I think, as a whole, leaving out a Naval dimension in this series was a huge miss. I loved the naval battles they did in Empire. Give me ninja pirates!

Lokhir Felheart's campaign is so much fun. I want to see that concept expanded.
